EA to blacklist users of leaked Northern Strike files

For those of you who haven't heard, several days ago EA confirmed a leak in which client files for the upcoming booster pack, Battlefield 2142: Northern Strike, were found circulating on the internet. Now EA is attempting to stop the leak by blacklisting server IP's which have been found to be using the leaked Northern Strike map. The news came from our server partner, Branzone, who urged customers to remove any Northern Strike maps from their server to avoid problems.

ea is lame,just like how they busted people balls over the bf2 unlockable weapon severs. ea needs to stop telling people what to do and to stop putting out garbage addons at high prices!

This may be the moral high road but cheating and getting the goods before someone else is how the mafia operates not most respectable gamers. Everyone should get the opportunity to play at the same time. People who steal and cheat should get blacklisted. Do the crime, do the time. You know the risks...

For me Battlefield 1942 is my fav, and best overall. Would be nice if DICE remastered this in the new engine and expansions that came with it. I know it would sell a ton.

JEECE2094d ago

I don't think it would. As much as I agree with you on it being great (it's one of my all time favorite multiplayer games), I don't know that its systems would work in today's market. For instance, the class system is totally static; there are no guns artificially locked away that you have to "earn." I prefer this, but I feel like modern players who have no frame of reference for the pre-COD4 era of FPS games would think a lack of a progression system is boring.

Possibly you meant that something like this would be added, but by remaster I took you to mean changes in the graphics/physics/engine etc. rather than game systems.

Plus I'd be wary of them touching 1942 again after the disappointing 1943.

I’ve never liked he concept of every army using every gun available. I find it ridiculous. Seems only “hardcore” games use proper equipment per team these days.

XxINFERNUSxX2094d ago

Well, yes, graphics/physics/engine etc. They can also bring it up to modern standards, like how BF4, and now V will be like, with unlocks, progression system etc.

Battlefield 2 for me it was first large scale mp battles
when i first fired it up and my pc could run it I went and spent over £100 on keyboard just to play the game
Flying a troop carrier to the mainland with 6 pals in the back and one in a cobra alongside I got goose bumps.... happy days

Crazyglues2094d ago

They got it right, Nothing was better then Bad Company 2 and sadly since DICE doesn't know why it was so good we will never get a Battlefield like that game ever again.... For the first time ever I don't even think I will buy this one, Battlefield V just looks like a Battlefield 1 reboot...So I guess I'm done, it was nice while it lasted...

Thankfully, a team of modders has figured out another way in order to restore multiplayer in Battlefield 2142."
